16 August Orcalab reports:

10:52 PDT Distant calls audible.
here is a surprise. Around 10am Stubbs Island Whale Watching and the Bluefjord reported that the Bs popped up, unanounced, in the middle of Blackfish Sound! This was as the A12s/A35s/C10s moved westward through Blackfish. We think it is the A5s (A8s+) and A11s who are still in the Strait. Noone has seen the A30s and A36s this morning. Are they still to the east in Johnstone Strait?

16:15 PDT No calls but orcas nearby
After A4s, Bs and A8s finished rubbing, the A36s suddenly showed up in the Bight. they are probably going to west, but very quiet now.

16:47 PDT Distant calls audible.
We're hearing occasional distant calls from the A36s as they make their way to the west. They are on the Vancouver Island side of theStrait, opposite Blackney Pass. The calls are audible on the CP hydrophone.

23:34 PDT No orcas present.
We've heard no calls so far this evening, and are not sure what happened to the A36s as they headed west in Johnstone Strait this afternoon. We think the A11s, A8s, & Bs all headed east after an intense rub, and that the A12s, A35s & C10s headed north into Queen Charlotte Strait. We are waiting.
